Jeszcze tylko jedno:

Pepe Gancedo, który zaprojek-tował to i kilka innych pól golfowych w Europie i Ameryce, opracował wyjątkowy plan zagospodarowania przestrzeni
z zachowaniem pól tarasowych, które przez setki lat były odgradzane kamiennymi murkami, tworząc stopnie aż do brzegu oceanu.

Pepe Gancedo, who designed this golf course and a few other golf courses in Europe and America, developed an exceptional space development plan. Terrace fields, which for hundreds of years had been separated with low stone walls, were remained, forming steps up to the ocean shore.

  -> Thanks. We could use "have been fenced off" or even "had been fenced off," depending on when they stopped being fenced off.

  -> Dziękuję Jacku.

agree  mike23: Yes. I guess "had been fenced off" if it was prior to what the designer did, otherwise "were fenced off" or even "have been..." if it's until now.

agree  Malina9: Mialo być neutral ale mój telefon moe chce cooperować. Fenced off nie jest zbyt fortunnym określemiem w kontekście kamiennego murku. Fence wymaga jakichś palików itd

  -> There are stone fences. Besides, fenced off means to be separated, delineated with boundaries, bounded. Walled off carries the connotation of purposeful isolation like the Berlin Wall. One can find plenty of examples of "stone wall" and "fenced off."

Explanation:
Costa Adeje Golf Course, Tenerife

Just 5 kilometres from Playa de las Americas and built on the site of a former banana plantation, Costa Adeje was inaugurated in 1998. Designed by Pepe Gancedo this Par 72 golf course overlooks the sea and the island of Gomerada, its unusual layout respects the old farm terraces that slope down to the sea framed by the original dry stone walls which used to delimit the former banana plantation areas in which the terrain was divided back in those days. These have been restored to sum up the unique enclave of this golf course. - http://www.teetimes.info/spain/costa-adeje-golf-course-tener...

French doors leading to one of two private bluestone terraces framed by stone sitting walls, providing a perfect spot for outdoor entertaining - http://goo.gl/A19uxn

And that outdoors — with terraces framed by sculptural stucco walls that hide unsightly views and serve as a backdrop for generous plantings - http://goo.gl/BMa1aC

Fig trees, olive trees, and pomegranates grow along terraces framed by neat stone walls - http://goo.gl/nwfdAl

Tropical garden delimited by low stone walls. Maui, Hawaii, USA - http://goo.gl/lo8sSF

In the central Pyrenees, Lasanta (1990,1997) observed that terraced fields with a vegetated talus were predominant in the shady areas whereas the terraced fields delimited by stone walls were built in the sunny hillslopes - http://www.boletinage.com/63/30-ARTICLE_13.pdf - page 2

Tonight, however, we stay in a lodge in Namchee Bazaar, which is situated in a natural amphitheatre. Houses with blue tin roofs cling to the mountainside, which eases into terraced fields separated by dry-stone walls and then drops away to the river-bed far below - http://goo.gl/1lRlYW
